January 16, 20214 yr Those two 7 minute legends episodes are great. I hope they do them for all the characters. Wanda is no joke.
January 16, 20214 yr WandaVision. What the hell am I watching? This is great. Pretty much my reaction. I don’t know what is going on, but I am intrigued.
January 16, 20214 yr Wife daughter and I watched Wandavision last night, solid 2 episodes. I like that they are going through the decades with episodes etc.
January 20, 20214 yr I’ve been making my way through Clone Wars. My one rule is that I only let myself watch it when I am on the treadmill. I am a lazy SOB, so I have been making slow progress. I just hit the mid-point of season three and it just got a lot easier to watch 2 or 3 episodes at a time. This is damn good stuff. Kicking myself for ignoring it before due to the animated format.

He's really enjoying it, and I am enjoying it more as we go along.

January 21, 20214 yr Doreys Reef cam is cool to have on in the back ground while working. Relaxing. Edited January 21, 20214 yr by MissingInAction
January 23, 20214 yr I broke down and subscribed to Disney +, ESPN+, and Hulu without ads for $18.99. They make it impossibly hard to subscribe to it. I would suggest waiting until your $12.99 bundle expires, cancel it, and then subscribe to the $18.99 bundle with a new email.

Well that’s good to know for next year.
February 1, 20214 yr 19 minutes ago, mdmost said: Give me a M'Baku series! They could hop around in eras for Wakandavision - moving forward with M'Baku, moving backwards with a young T’Chaka, even do an anthology through the years - first discovery of Vibranium, stuff in the 19th Century, how they got to be where they are at in the present, etc.
February 22, 20214 yr Watching the original Muppet show from the 1970s from episode 1 with the kids. They like a lot of it, but wow a lot of the jokes were meant for adults.
February 24, 20214 yr Author The Bad Batch post-Clone Wars cartoon starts streaming on May the 4th. Loki starts streaming on June 11th.

February 24, 20214 yr Author The What If? Marvel animated series should come out in August. It will be made to start when Loki finishes.
February 24, 20214 yr Uncle Jessie runs a hoops program at an elite private school where some of the girls aren't really good enough to be on the team? Somebody call Lori Loughlin's agent. I smell cross-over episode!

February 25, 20214 yr Last I read, we were also supposed to get the Hawkeye and Ms Marvel tv series this year as well. Edit - interestingly, and probably not surprising, Pugh who plays Yelena in Black Widow (and likely is the new BW) is listed as being in 8 episodes of Hawkeye by IMDB.

March 7, 20214 yr Watched Flight of the Navigator followed by Willow last night. Both hold up. Forgot Sarah Jessica Parker was in flight of the navigator.

Watched home alone 1 and 2 with the 6 and 9 year old in addition to those two around Christmas. They enjoyed them very much as well. The also like the Rocketeer, which was much more violent for a pg movie than I remember.

I think what hurt it at the theater was Disney promoting it as “Disney’s The Rocketeer”. No one thought it would be anything other than a light hearted movie given Disney’s reputation back in ‘91. It’s a great flick with a beautiful Jennifer Connolly and a great villain in Timothy Dalton. James Horner’s music is amazing too.

Disney has a Rocketeer cartoon your kids might like - the jetpack/suit/stuff was passed down through the family to the youngest child or something, and it's all futuristic and stuff. My youngest likes it.

March 12, 20214 yr 11 minutes ago, Guadaloopy said: Hey… Disney+ Whatcha got for me this week? My oldest is watching "Secret of Sulfur Springs", which is a time travel/1980s/pseudo-Stranger Things for kids. And you can keep watching Falcon/Winter Soldier trailers...
March 17, 20214 yr Author For all the 80s kids where our wheelhouse was the time of Return of the Jedi ( I was 7), any extra Star Wars content was an instant watch. I even remember watching the Making of ROTJ on VHS because I was so infatuated with Star Wars at the time. Edited March 17, 20214 yr by mdmost
March 26, 20214 yr Don't think I saw anyone talk about their decision to release Black Widow via D+ on July 13th. Glad it is finally seeing the light of day.

March 26, 20214 yr Must have gotten decent enough response to the Raya movie to think they'll recoup enough on it.
March 26, 20214 yr 6 minutes ago, Scary Stranger said: Must have gotten decent enough response to the Raya movie to think they'll recoup enough on it. Thing is, parents will drop $30 on something like Raya if their kids are going to watch it a bunch of times before it hits normal D+. But who wants to drop $30 on BW, when they’ll watch it once or twice?
March 26, 20214 yr I would pay 30 for BW if I would normally be taking the whole family to the theater. Once you have multiple tickets involved the 30 at home is much more appealing. My kids aren't old enough for that stuff yet. So I'll wait until it's on normal Disney+
March 26, 20214 yr Yeah it's super convenient for families. I might see if I can get some friends to split it to make it worthwhile. Otherwise, for me, it would be 3x the cost to just go to the theater.
March 26, 20214 yr Author I like the Premier Plus for movies I don't want to spend over $30 to take my kids to like Mulan, Raya, or Cruella. For a movie that would benefit from a viewing experience in a theater like Black Widow, I'd prefer to spend the extra with all that entails, especially an experience like at the Alamo Drafthouse Plus, I'm sick of being at home. I'm more thankful for HBO Max so I didn't have to waste $50+ on Wonder Woman 84 or a dumb Godzilla vs. Kong movie. Edited March 26, 20214 yr by mdmost

The AMC Lincoln Center (Non-Imax, but Dolby) is 26. 30 is a steal cause I can make my own popcorn and drink my own coke.

But I'm glad it'll be free.That way I can spend more on fare like Top Gun 2.

They had to release it now that they have the Marvel Disney+ shows going. Since these shows are directly integrated in the MCU they couldn’t wait any longer. 14 hours ago, atomheartbevo said: Thing is, parents will drop $30 on something like Raya if their kids are going to watch it a bunch of times before it hits normal D+.

Add in the cost of food and the baby sitter, I’m saving a shitload of money and I can pause/rewind and rewatch, the only downside is the lower quality viewing.
